Drawn from the Imperial War Museum, this collection of two dozen rarely seen training and public information films—complete and uncut—chronicles the R.A.F. during the war years 1940–44. The three-disc set touches upon a diverse range of subjects, from ditching procedures for Halifax bomber crews to instructions for navigators on board Stirling bombers. Another film offers tips on rescuing fighter pilots from their cockpits. Here too are film guides on preventing air accidents, behind-the-scenes accounts of servicing Wellington bombers, and a celebration marking the introduction of the Lancaster heavy bomber.
